Support for Oracle Multitenant and pluggable databases provides the ability to synchronize the backup, replication and maintenance of multiple pluggable databases as a single entity, allowing quick creation of complete development and test environments, and more rapid, lower-risk migration of complex environments with interrelated databases into production.

Oracle Database 12c customers can immediately utilize the Pillar Axiom enterprise-grade storage system to provision and tune storage to the unique aspects of Oracle Database 12c. The combination of Pillar Axiom's patented Quality of Service (QoS), Storage Domains and Application Profiles enable customers to perform one-click storage provisioning with prioritized performance tuning for Oracle Database 12c images and the applications that run on them.

QoS on the Pillar Axiom and OISP on the Sun ZFS Storage Appliance provide unparalleled advantages when used in Oracle Database 12c environments.

Oracle Storage Delivers Unique Value for Oracle Database Customers

Oracle’s Sun ZFS Storage Appliances and Pillar Axiom storage systems are the only NAS and SAN storage that support Oracle Hybrid Columnar Compression, an Oracle Database-specific feature that typically compresses historical data by 12x, and improves query performance an average of 5x.

Sun ZFS Storage Appliances are the only storage systems with an award-winning storage analytics suite capable of providing granular application or VM/VDI visibility and control, and immediate resolution of VDI boot storms and SLA infringement fees.

Oracle Database 12c customers can use the secure multi-tenancy and QoS capabilities of the Pillar Axiom storage system to physically isolate data on a user or application basis and can deliver high levels of predictable performance to multiple customers in a consolidated SAN storage environment.
